Why Upgrading Your Caravan Power System is Smarter (& Cheaper) Than Buying New!
2014 Retreat Brampton Caravan: Why Upgrading Your Caravan Power System is Smarter (and Cheaper) Than Buying New!
Join us as we take you through an Outech OffGrid power upgrade for our clients' 2014 Retreat caravan!
After comparing the cost of a new caravan or to upgrade their existing setup, they chose to keep their caravan and modernise it instead.
In this video, we explain the upgrades we installed, including:
📌 WHY we replaced the air conditioner, its more efficient but that is NOT THE ONLY REASON,
📌 WEIGHT COMPARISONS - A powerful 620Ah lithium battery system, replacing the outdated 12V AGM setup.
📌 WHAT 12-volt power system we installed to meet our clients specific power needs,
📌 HOW we fit 1200W caravan rooftop solar panels
📌 The COST benefits of upgrading the power system in an existing van instead of buying a new caravan,
📌 HOW we installed STARLINK for connectivity and security for remote camping.
📌 Why Not Manufacturer Upgrades? Understand why getting an off-grid power upgrade from the caravan manufacturer isn’t always the best option.
📌 240V Power Board Upgrade: Find out why we had to upgrade to a 240V power board for enhanced functionality.
🔎 We address two key questions everyone asks:
💰How much weight is added when upgrading from AGM to lithium in a 12V caravan power system?
You'll be surprised by the weight savings and how it impacts overall caravan performance!
🙌 What are the COST BENEFITS of upgrading the power system in an existing van instead of buying a new caravan.
Many believe that a new caravan will come with a superior power system, but even after paying for upgrades, the systems in new caravans often fall short.
Our clients found that modernizing their existing setup provided them with the functionality and efficiency they desired without the hefty price tag of a new caravan.
Watch as we demonstrate how these caravan power upgrades enable our clients to enjoy modern conveniences while off-grid, including running their air conditioner with ease.
